Happy Litha to everyone!

May this magical day be filled with the brigtness of the Sun

Oh look,there's a bunch of fairies in the forest near the castle dancing in a ring!

Happy Summer Solstice to you all! I will join you gladly after my work this evening if you are still awake, little fairies go to sleep early sometimes! Will the Sun King attend, I wonder?

Here is a rather cool site I was having a look at.

Oh Meg! i love the link you posted, thank you!

the digital animation video  "King Arthur's Summer Solstice" is amazing if slightly surreal!

My name is Arthur, I am he,
Once and Future, born to be.
Celtic Chieftain, Knight of Old,
I am the story as foretold.
Loyal Knights, must come to me,
Bowing to their destiny.
Where ’er we find them, we’ll right wrong,
For this must always be our song.
The Cauldron and the Cross unite,
Christian and Pagan, join our fight.
To re-unite the Celtic creed,
In it’s time of greatest need.

From the Rallying Song c. Arthur Pendragon 1987

There are tales, and there are stories,
Of Arthur and his Knights.
Of Standing Stones and Circles,
And ancient Battle sites.
But the place that figures most, is not a place at all,
‘tis Castle Camelot, without a Castle wall.
You’ll not find it on a map, or posted on a sign,
But it’s there wherever we gather and partake of the wine.

From Castle Camelot
c. Arthur Pendragon 1989

Thank you Tues! That makes sense i guess because of different time zones, The Solstice peak was about 6pm on 21st June here in the uk!
